1 Callum Ingram Office hours: Mon. & Wed., 11:30am-1pm Office hours location: Asbury Hall 107 Fall 2015 POLS 130 MWF. 10:20-11:20am AH 201 Introduction to Political Theory Political theory is the study of how we ought to organize the forces that shape our lives. Among the most immediate and controversial of these forces is government. What is a government? Why should (or shouldn t) we have one? How should it be organized? When does it become illegitimate? Of course, government is a classic topic (for many fields) and these are classic questions. But! We theorists are an ambitious bunch and we ve made sure our field has broader horizons. This course will therefore consider the whats, whys, and hows of the economy, culture, ecology, race, gender, spirituality, education, and most everything else that forms our social and political experience. Our project this semester will be to get to know the field of political theory in all its sprawling, weird, fun, challenging vastness. This will involve both historical and contemporary components. The first third of the course will engage the tradition of political theory and philosophy, the second will engage some tensions between basic concepts as they have evolved from this tradition, and the final third will consider a number of pressing topics in contemporary politics. In this way we will lay a historical groundwork that can help us critically engage the core political questions we face in our own lives. I hope that we can read and discuss each of our course materials in three unique (but connected) ways. First, these texts arise from, and shape, history. In reading them, we will consider the way theorists works arise from their context while also generating new contexts for subsequent scholars and political practitioners. Second, these texts contain challenging and provocative arguments in which writers are often telling us how we ought to live. We need to be able to understand and address their (perhaps presumptuous) claims if we want to understand and defend our own politics. Finally, these texts are often beautiful in their own funny ways. I love political theory, not just for the history and arguments, but also because the texts are often well-written, charming, and weird. We ll talk more about this threefold attention to history, argument, and beauty soon. Required Texts All of this course s readings will be made available to you electronically, either in the form of.pdf documents posted on the course s webpage or as journal articles accessible through the library website. From time to time you will be responsible for locating these articles on your own. I realize this is a bit of a pain but I promise that it s a good skill to practice! We are going to try two risky things this semester. First, you will be allowed to bring readings to class on your laptop, ipad, Kindle, or whatever other electronic device you prefer. We all have to learn how to participate in a discussion with a glowing screen in front of us. That s just the world we live in. That said, I reserve the right to shift us back to the printed word if this proves too distracting (if you are having problems with other students surfing the internet during class, slip an anonymous note under my office door and I ll issue a warning). Second, we will have less reading than comparable courses (generally around 20 pages/day, opposed to the typical theory seminar load of
2 40 pages/day). You should know that this is a trap: the reduction in pages corresponds to higher standards for reading comprehension. Take your time with the pages assigned! Classroom Expectations A good classroom environment takes work from everyone. This is particularly important in a discussion-based class in which everyone will be expected to participate on a weekly basis. Those of us who tend to speak up more than others may need to consciously step back and allow other people a chance to contribute. Those of us who tend to be more reserved or hesitant may need to make efforts to share our thoughts in order to do our part in the classroom. Every respectful voice helps us all learn more, and I will expect you to behave accordingly. In order to establish a good classroom environment, I hope to observe a few guidelines: Come to every class. I m not going to be a fastidious attendance taker but it s going to help everyone s comprehension (and your final grade!) to have you there and engaged. Bring all assigned materials to every class. We will start with the assumption that we will raise hands before we speak in class. If this does not feel necessary, we can reassess. If you re likely to get sleepy in class, bring whatever provisions you need to stay engaged. Assignments and Assessments Your final grade for the course will be calculated based on five assessments: 1. Presentation 15% 2. Micro-essays 15% 3. Midterm exam 25% page final essay 25% 5. Discussion participation and attendance 20% Presentations Every student will be responsible for an in-class presentation during the topics section of the course. Presentations should aim to: 1. Offer a (brief) summary and (longer) critical interpretation of one reading, focusing on issues that are significant in the larger context of the course. 2. Present two or three questions for class discussion. 3. Do this in less than ten minutes (really, it s pretty low-key). Micro-essays Fifteen times over the course of the semester, I ll ask you to write an in-class micro-essay. These essays should fit on the front and back of one index card (I ll bring the index cards). My goal is not to catch you for failing to comprehend the readings perfectly. Instead, I hope to provoke you to critically engage a key topic from the readings and pose questions to me about our discussions. The essays will be graded on a generous pass/fail basis. Basically, if you show up having done the readings, can fill up an index card, and repeat this fifteen times, you ll ace this section of the course. Think of it as a free A for 15% of your grade just for showing up and having something to say. 2
3 Class Schedule Note: this schedule is liable to change a little bit over the course of the semester. In practice, this really means I m likely to cut some articles and selections, particularly later in the semester. I wanted to warn you about this at the outset. If a change happens in the syllabus, I ll pass word along both in class and through . August 26 Introduction to the Course Syllabus August 28 Framing the Course Ruth W.
